FIELD OF INVENTION
[0001] This invention relates generally to direct torque control (DTC) for an electric machine (IPMSM), and more particularly to a method for determining a DTC hysteresis controller band.BACKGROUND
[0002] The demand for electric and hybrid electric vehicles continues to grow as governmental agencies, private organizations and individual consumers strive to conserve resources, reduce energy costs and lower carbon emissions. Electrified vehicles have an electric drive system that includes an electrical machine to assist or replace the internal combustion engine of a conventional vehicle, a power conversion system configured to provide energy to the electric machine, and a machine controller configured to control machine operation. Due to its high power / torque density, its high efficiency, and its high reliability, a permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) is a popular choice for electric vehicle drive systems. Most machine controllers used with PMSMs in electric vehic...
